Refunds

Students may be eligible for a refund due to an overage in financial aid and/or payments that exceed the charges on their student account.  Financial Aid will begin to disburse aid after the drop/add period has concluded.  Please consult the Academic Calendar for details.

Refunds are processed when there is an actual credit on the student's account.  Refunds will be disbursed to the student's UT Box (if applicable) or their permanent address on file with the university. Students can elect to receive their refund via Direct Deposit (electronic funds).  Contact the Bursar's Office for additional information on Direct Deposit.  Students must email  the Bursar's Office if they would like the check to be sent to an address other than their permanent address.  

Refunds due to a Parent Plus Loan will be issued to the borrower unless specified during the Plus Loan application process.  

All refunds are subject to audit corrections.  If a refund is received in error, the student must pay back the University within 30 days of notification.
